Seems like too many fastballs to me.

I don't want Homer Bailey anywhere near the playoff rotation.
Is it really bad luck when the pitches are right down the middle?
Homer has gotten squeezed a few times this inning.
Hugs, smiling, and interactive Twitter accounts, don't mean winning baseball. Until this community understands that we are cursed to relive the madness.
Big K there
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
Craig strikes out swinging. 3 Ks for Bailey.
His split/change up is working quite well today. He had Carpenter out in front earlier and just struck out Craig on it.
This will not change until the Reds win the World Series.......

Homer = FeS2
Finally one hit at somebody.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Beltran grounds into a force out at short. 3-0 Cards mid 3rd.
I plan to start a thread soon on how BABIP has become the cop out for bad pitching. This is an example.
BABIP stands for batting average on balls in play. Homer allowed a high BABIP that inning because he grooved his average fastball right down Broadway.
Yes, if he was real lucky, those shots might have been hit right at somebody and turned into outs.
But generally throwing meatballs will result in a high BABIP.
